Meditation for Intuition
Meditation for INtuition
(19 minute meditation)
As you’re navigating your pregnancy, life, transition to Motherhood and bring this challenging year to a close and turn the corner into a lighter year (out of Capricorn into Aquarius) I wanted to offer a Meditation for Intuition.
Meditating to expand your intuition in your pregnancy helps throughout your pregnancy in knowing how to move, what to eat, feeling into what your baby needs, and into Motherhood. But, I also wanted to provide this as a tool to use and practice to center yourself into your inner guidance and knowing. Expanding your intuition will not only help you in your pregnancy and birth but, will also, help lighten the challenging emotions associated with this year.
Trusting and developing a stronger relationship with your intuition takes practice. So, follow this guided 19minute meditation and let’s get started.

Full Moon Meditation to Experience the Expanded Self
Enjoy a sweet, simple meditation to relate to the Full Moon and her vast feminine energy. A full moon is a goddess symbol and represents the energy of the Mother. The moon itself is a symbol of the spiritual aspects of femininity, such as intuition, creativity and wisdom …
Connecting with this Mothering energy while pregnant illuminates your innate feminine powers and Mothering abilities and energy.
In its monthly cycle the full moon is typically the time during the month related to releasing anything in your life that’s no longer serving you for your highest good. The brightness of a full moon illuminates things in your life that need attention brought to them… such as; a behavior, a thought pattern, or a belief, a story or reoccurring theme.

Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes Effected by Climate Change ... Black Women See Higher Effects
Clear Pregnancy and Generational Health Warning Resulting From Our Climate Crisis.
All pregnant women need to know about this analysis. We’re all aware of Climate Change and have been feeling and living its environmental and weather related effects for years. Science shows the last 8 out of 10 years have been the hottest on record and rapid Arctic Ice melt is changing our ocean currents which have broad sweeping fallout on how we live.
A new recently published analysis shows some of the silent effects of Climate Change. JAMA’s scientific analysis and findings on adverse pregnancy outcomes related to climate change are out!
“When you talk about climate, people think about severe weather, big storms or huge fires … but we wanted to talk about the impacts that are common and widespread and ongoing and also are rarely attributed to the climate crisis,” said Bruce Bekkar, a co-author of the study and a retired obstetrician.

The Science Behind Meditation and Prenatal Wellness
I love seeing science behind the benefits of meditation during pregnancy. Not only does it feel good once you get into the routine of it but I love reading the scientific proof behind these feels! It makes sense too when you think about it given that, in general, meditation brings on calming feelings and slows your busy mind down long enough to actually have a creative thought. It’s a moment to slow down .. to give to yourself with health benefits for you and baby!
What I love about this scientific study’s results is that it found a significant decrease in perceived stress scores, a significant decrease of blood pressure response to cold pressor test and a significant increase in heart rate variability in the test group (p< 0.05, significant)! This indicates that mindfulness meditation is a powerful regulator of the sympathetic nervous system. This means that the fight or flight response of the body is better regulated with meditation and can reduce...
